Shabby Chic

I finally got around to taking pictures of Madeleine's room:

I love that the headboard and the frames completely match, that was unplanned. I repainted the dresser to match the headboard. It took a whole lot of sanding and many coats of paint because it was originally stained to match her crib, which was a dark cherrywood color. I'd like to get a small night table too, and I'm occasionally scouring thrift stores for that, but haven't found the right one yet. I didn't show you the blank, white wall that faces the bed. I don't know what to do with it. I'd like to put up some children's artwork, but don't want to spend any money on that project.

so pretty, Humphrey is my favorite decorating pillow though ;) We did framed comic shots from Calvin and Hobbes around Oz's room, super cheap, especially with some Michael's coupons for the frames. You could always do something like that, with favorite children books prints or something
